We copy the following from a recent
issue OF the Brandon Union:
About two years ago, while the Brandon
House was under the management OF Mr.
Higgins, a gentleman travelling for large
lewelry house, that deals in gems, had the
misfortune to lose o very valuable ruby
ring. and thought he lost it in the hotel.
Everything at the house was turned up
side down, but after long searching failed
to reveal the lost article. The months
slipped by, and but for the occasional visit
OF the traveller, the affair would have aoon
faded from recollection. About year ago
q child OF family boarding for the sum
mer at the Brandon House, discovered
handsome ruby ring 10 the deep folds OF {
one OF the FARCE plush chairs that orna
ment the parlor, and II was given in charge
to Mr.. Higgins, who not knowing the
name OF the traveller who lost the jewel, |
kept it carefully until he should see him
again. Last week the gentleman who lost
the ring was in town, and upon seeing Mr.
Higgins spoke OF the gem he had lost two
years before, which, to his great surprise i
and delight, the latter told him he had ,
found and saved for him. The gentleman
was profuse in his thanks, and on receiv-
ing the ring presented Miss Maggie Hig c
gins with very hand some diamond and
garnet ring in morocco case.
